Replicas of antique scientific
instruments such as Faraday's dynamo or Newton's telescope,
including all the relevant documentary research. Original materials
(copper, brass, ivory) are used in their fabrication.
In the field of the history of science, we make replicas of
ancient instruments, sometimes in small runs. We currently manufacture
around 40 standard models of very well-known instruments such
as Leeuwenhoek's microscope, Foucault's gyroscope, Heron's aeliopile,
Ramsden's electrostatic machine, Leonardo da Vinci's hygrometer,
the zoetrope, Newton's telescope, the gold-leaf electroscope
or Volta's battery. All of them are working replicas made to
the same dimensions and with identical materials as the original.
